The re-arranged contest between Three Bridges and Cray Wanderers ended in the Wands favour as an emphatic finish to the game saw Cray come away with a 4-0 win away from home for the second time this season.

The match was played at East Grinstead Town following the Jubilee Fields pitch deemed still unplayable after Saturday’s postponement.  The first half was a lively affair with Three Bridges having opportunities to score but it was Cray who scored the only goal of the half when Anthony Adesite struck his third goal of the season in the 34th minute.

The second half carried on in the same vein but Cray looked dangerous each time they attacked and Luke Medley hit the post and also missed a penalty.   However, fifteen minutes from time, Cray scored a second with a superb individual goal from Medley and he made it 3-0 six minutes from the end.  The scoring was completed with a tremendous twenty five yard free kick from Danny Haynes in the 87th minute.

The first half was an open affair and Three Bridges had opportunities to score through Hakeem Adelakun who sliced a shot wide and then Tony Garrod forced a fine save out of Nick Blue in the first fifteen minutes.  Cray came close first through Luke Medley who drove a shot wide of the right post and Lee Prescott fired in a shot which went just wide. 

It was Cray though who made the breakthrough in the 34th minute.  The ball was worked down the right and Mundele played the ball across the box to Anthony Adesite who from twelve yards controlled the ball and hit a shot which the keeper couldn’t keep out to score.

The second half was even more eventful and Cray started to create more openings.  Luke Medley broke the offside trap to go through on goal but his shot hit the post then home keeper Martin Grant denied him with his feet.  In the 53rd minute Prescott then saw a shot blocked by the keeper and following up Adesite was deemed to have been impeded by Grant and a penalty was given.   However from the spot kick, Medley fired over the bar. 

Three Bridges almost levelled with when Alex Rose curled a shot narrowly wide before Cray ended the game strongly.

In the 75th minute, Cray made it 2-0 when a ball from midfield was played up to Medley who strode into the area, took on two defenders and turned and curled a delicately placed shot over the keeper and into the back of the net for a goal of breathtaking quality.

With six minutes to go, Cray scored a third which again was very well taken by Medley.  This time down the left, Adesite’s pass played in Medley who with an impudent side foot finish placed the ball wide of Grant and into the net.

To round off a fine evening’s entertainment, Cray scored a fourth three minutes from time with another excellent goal.  The Wands were awarded a free kick, twenty five yards from goal.  Up stepped Danny Haynes who curled the ball round the wall and into the bottom right corner of the net for a stunning strike.

Cray are now certain to finish eleventh in the league table and complete their season on Saturday with a trip to ninth placed Faversham Town.
